I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PwC in Nov 2012
Interview
A few days after submitting my application an appointment for a phone interview was made. A senior manager and two consultants from the target project team attended the call. Some common personal questions were asked, nothing difficult. After that I was asked to solve a simple case study. The whole call took 1 hour. One day later I received the internship offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
- why do you want to do Consulting?
- what is the focus of your studies?
Technical questions were not like other technical interviews. They give you answers as options to pick from instead of you coming up with and presenting your answer like you would normally

Strength based interview, approx. 30 mins. The interviewers were friendly and approachable, as were the entire Talent team. Walked through my CV, general "why us, why you, why this team" questions. Felt like they really wanted to get to know you and how you would fit into the culture.
Super straight forward, standard difficulty questions with a few requiring STAR structured responses. They also asked about my experiences both at uni and extracurricular. It was online for me and I had 2 interviewers.
